Hi, 

I'm in despair. I tried so many things but I didn't get my RAAS working for the PMDG 747 v2 and 748i in P3D v4.4. No RAAS is showing in the "Addon" tab in P3D. When I reinstall my PMDG 747, the pmdg installer didn't create a RAAS entry in my dll.xml file. I tried to delete the dll.xml file and reinstall the PMDG 747. No new dll.xml file is created...I really need help. 

Thank you so much.

Dennis

Hi Dennis,

No need to "despair" ... there is hope for the future...

Not sure why the RAAS entry never showed up on your DLL.xml.   You're probably looking at the wrong DLL.xml.

In 99.9 percent of all cases, if RAAS doesn't show up in your Addons menu, it's because there's a problem with your DLL.xml.

Based on experience, there's probably a missing tag around the PMDG HUD entry.

This is what the RAAS entry should look like:

 

 <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>RAASPRO</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
    <Path>.\RAASPRO\RAASPRO.dll</Path>
    <DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
    <DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
  </Launch.Addon>

 

For P3D V4, look here:

C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4

 

Remember: Look for that missing tag around the PMDG HUD entry... I'll bet you it's missing.

 

 

Thank you. You are right. I was looking in the wrong one. In C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D is the entry in this dll.xml file. Where can I find the PMDG HUD entry?

Dennis

Here you can see my dll.xml file in the path C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

-<SimBase.Document id="dll" version="3,0" Type="AceXML">

<Descr>AceXML Document</Descr>

<Filename>dll.xml</Filename>

-<Launch.Addon>

<Name>PMDG_Interface</Name>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Path>PMDG\DLLs\PMDG_Interface.dll</Path>

<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>

<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>

</Launch.Addon>

-<Launch.Addon>

<Name>RAASPRO</Name>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Path>.\RAASPRO\RAASPRO.dll</Path>

<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>

<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>

</Launch.Addon>

</SimBase.Document>

Hmmm, you could still have a corruption on your DLL.xml... they are sensitive.  

Send me a support ticket and I'll send you my DLL.xml.

 

On the FS2Crew website?

 

Yes, the contact page has link for tickets.

 

Copied. Ticket is sent now.

Do you know how long will it take to process my ticket?

I just sent you the file.

Check your spam folder if you didn't get it.

Wow, thank you. I will try it right now! To reinstall RAAS I just have to start the PMDG 747 v2 base installer right?

Yes, but try my DLL.xml first.

I will, thank you very much. P3D is starting right now.

Still no RAAS in Add-ons. I will try to reinstall RAAS. I just delete all RAAS files I can find and then I have to run the PMDG 747 installer?
